As the exclusive Sales Agent for US Exhibitors for the Natural & Organic Products EU Show in London I wanted the new exhibitors to have a great experience and a successful show. Based on my own business experiences working with the US Commercial Service and my International Trade Show experience I thought it would be a benefit and productive to explore a Market Trade Briefing for the exhibitors at the new US Embassy in London. I was able to organize this joint market trade brief by the US Commercial Service & USDA Foreign Agriculture Service for US Exhibitors of the NOPE(Natural & Organic Products EU Show)2022.
Since we hadn’t met in person for almost three years it was an invaluable experience for new brands to doing International business and exhibitors that haven’t traveled in some time.
